Gyorgi Origin and Meaning

The name Gyorgi is a girl's name of Hungarian origin.

Gyorgi is traditionally a masculine Hungarian name that has been occasionally used for females. It's the Hungarian variant of George, which derives from the Greek 'georgos' meaning 'farmer' or 'earth-worker.' The name carries historical significance in Hungary and Eastern European countries, where Saint George is venerated as a patron saint. When used as a feminine name, Gyorgi represents a bold cross-gender naming choice. The distinctive spelling with the 'y' and 'i' gives the name a unique visual appeal while maintaining its European heritage. While uncommon in English-speaking countries, Gyorgi offers a connection to Hungarian culture and a distinctive alternative to more common feminine names. Its pronunciation (roughly 'DYOHR-dyee') may present challenges outside its native context.
